Gabapentinoids The Lyrica (Pregabalin) Mega Thread v 2.0

I also find 600-900 with 2-3 days apart still gives me that magic (heavy eyes, head, and rushes down the legs and arms). Also mad social skills.
 
I’ve learned a lot the past year about my own use. Anything from 900 to 1500mg can produce the same effects and for the same amount of time. I think I wasted a lot by going over into the 2000mg amount.

Plus I don’t mix anymore so that’s gotta help.
 
I take a gram at a time; give so many darn away it sucks. My mom is badly addicted to these - IDK what too do

And NEVER take these if you have epilepsy unless you have plenty of strong anticonvulsant. We are talking lorazepam or clonazepam

Gram?Never know someone to take such huge doses.Personaly me never exceeded 20mg diazepam daily.Clonazepam took just a few times-too strong for me.Never tried lorazepam...just lormetazepam....guess is simmilar 'cause the tablets are 1mg just like lorazepam.As to pregabalin the bigest daily dose i have taken is three 75mg capsules

Well I only take doses that large a couple of times a month, usually starting at a gram and slowly taking another half gram or more (total 1.5-2 grams at MOST) and, with my usual clonazepam and opioid, it feels fuckin' fantastic; sometimes even in opioid wd it, with benzodiazepines of the potent type and (for me personally) the nitro subtype, almost completely eliminates opioid wd, though again, despite being called an anticonvulsant, pregabalin and its analogoues and brothers and sisters are only effective at treating partial seizures, that is, myoclonic seizures, as opposed to full blown Tonic-Clonic

Even then it is a secondary treatment, as in, taken with another anticonvulsant

Another warning ⚠️, Keppra (leviteracitam) actually causes and/or increases anxiety, yet Depakote is actually synergistically relaxing, though Keppra is effective for grand mal (tonic clonic according to the latest DSM) amd petit Mal (Myoclonic)

Aside from those couple of times a month, I take 200-300mg, for secondary analgesic effects and because of the nice synergy with my primary RX meds (of which Pregabalin is one)

Although the next day after a binge take half a gram or at least a few hundred mgs to avoid a crash


BTW, anyone else heard about ketamine nasal spray? One of the enantiomers...
 
I don't get the hype

I have both sitting here

someone tell me the best dosage and timing on when to take each

change my mind
 
Start with half a gram, wait 40 minutes, then go up every half hour or so by 100-200mg till you get to where you want to be; this is advice for LYRICA (Pregabalin) regular, not CR

Have actually taken both generic and Brand name, because an addicted relative also gets them and Medicaid makes you get name brand (in GA, it also makes you get Brand Name Suboxone strips; it will not pay for generic strips or tablets

It does (or did) pay for the buccal one, Bunavail, I think

For gabapentin, it is more complex and, there is a reason gabapentin is not a federal controllled substance (only a few ridiculous states) while Lyrica is a CV RX only at the federal level.


Start with 800mg-1.2mg, depending on dosage strength 💪 (there are 100.g, 300mg, 400mg, all capsules, and the "Arnold's " (sic) 600mg, tablets only

After initial dose, wait 30-40minutes, amd redose, several hundred milligrams

Keep on until you feel better, though do not expect Lyrica results, amd for some people it takes massive amounts mixed with DOC to get any significant response. On the other hand, everyone I have ever known f'ing loves Pregabalin/Lyrica


If mixing with hard drugs cut dosage in half for either, OR for Lyrica go much slower until you know how your body responds - YOU can always take more, never (almost) less

Hope that helps

We should be going dark soon, hope you are well, Captains Heroin, Chris and all the fallen soldiers who selflessly helped so may people so much. God bless you all


Peace, hoping to enjoy some Pregabalin myself in the next 24 hours amd make headway on my FFV ultra LLG run 😎

Great info, thank you.

When you talk about this dosage protocol for pregabalin and gabapentin are you talking about them separately or combining?
 
Hi, nice advice from Lorne, just want to add, i have years of experience with pregabalin and doing wonders for my stimulant addiction and general wellbeing, currently im taking it around 3 or 4 times per week, if i feel "good", or "normal", i just try to skip´that day dose so i can keep my tolerance lower (incredible how pregabalin creates tolerance fast, and how it gone fast too).

In any case, i should wait aprox. 90 min. to feel the first effect of my dose, and i preffer to take it all at once (after know my optimal dose, and the minium possible at the same time, right now, 450mg., then 150 mg more when they kick, some times, not always), and if i have food in my stomach it will take 2 hours or more to feel the first mood lifting and anxiolytic effects, so, be aware of that, becouse all people i know start to feel any effect in the 90 or 120 mins after ingestion, dont redose before 120 min. if you dont know exactly how your body react to the drug.

Hope you can find what you are searching in pregabalin, cheers :)
 
ye u talk about gram of lyrica...I thought that u talked about gram of diazepam.Yes lyrica is good for opi and benzo withdrawl......I use it ocasionally.....just a 75mg are enough.Depakote is nasty shit for me....I always throw it in a bucket,while been in detox centres....feels like crap from this and is bad for the liver.....also throw in a bucket seroquel-nasty shit....Here in madhouse-they just give ur meds...nobody watch u drink it or not...nobody cares for nothing...those people there are forgotten by all.....treat them like crap of society-talk about mentally ill...shizos.....a real crazy people...a horror movie-state psychiatrick clinics in my place brother☹️

I have talked to a provider about the nasal ket, I had been taking infusions of ket (fucking incredible!!) Will let ya know if I score some.
 
Separately, though the same would apply to combining except you must take no more than a gram (or 1.2 grams tops) every 30-40 minutes with gabapentin due to LAT issues causing BA% to drop with high doses taken all at once; this dies nit matter with lyrica/pregabalin, except the more you take, the longer it takes to reach peak plasma levels, though this does not effect AUC
(Example 100mg Tmax 50 minutes, 1 gram Tmax 3-4 hours)

Also with regards to gabapentin, both fatty meals and high protein meals have been demonstrated to significantly up the BA%, something to think about
 
Does anyone have any input on pregabalin affecting sex? I took 300mg tonight and was bored so I hit up this super hot escort. I went for about 45 minutes straight and couldn't finish. In that regard it was almost worse than having sex on MXE. I mean it's kind of cool being able to go for 20-30 minutes but at a certain point you just want to finish. It's weird because phenibut was always quite easy to get off on.
Had amazing sex on it. Makes me horny AF and lowers inhibitions.

Haven't had it for ages but yesterday I'd taken small doses through the day and it really helped with anxiety etc. Late at night I popped one and forgot what a potent and weird drug this is. I was walking like drunk by the time I was going to sleep. Felt good, creative, euphoric and stimulated but also drowsy. Such a strange drug.

Took 600mg tonight, wild ride. Was listening to some music I've been working on with the visualiser (on iTunes). Fucking trippy as well - all the music sounded good including stuff I was listening to on YouTube. Weird ass drug man.

Also I found it to be highly effective for opiate WD/s.

I wanted to give some cautionary advice to anyone thinking of taking pregabalin recreationally. I hadn’t really messed with this substance before and you can buy it over the counter in Mexico, so I thought “why not?” I feel like I made a terrible mistake. The first day I took 600mg, followed by another 150mg when I was feeling the effects. What resulted was a very strange, almost opiate like psychedelic high that lasted several hours. What’s so bad about that? Aside from a strange feeling in my body, and some headaches/heart palpitations, it was enjoyable. I decided to repeat the experience the next day. So I did the same thing and dosed 600mg with 150mg shortly afterwards. I was then stupid enough to do it a third day in a row, this time being brash and taking 900mg. It was a different brand and I didn’t feel it as much. The day afterwards, in the afternoon, holy shit did I start feeling a comedown. Pregabalin also has anti anxiety effects and the rebound anxiety was something else. This was accompanied with a nasty feeling in my head, like I could literally feel the drug leaving my brain. I would forget things easily and over the next few days rebound anxiety and depression became worse. It is now Friday, five days since I ended the three day binge and I still don’t feel right.

I realize I was stupid for doing such high doses three days in a row, but the comedown still seemed especially intense. I have had an easier time recovering from binging on opiates. So please be careful if you intend to use this substance recreationally.
 
I truly believed this was going to involve a seizure at some point and was gonna say "yeah me too kind of, except it was a mix of its little bro gabapentin along with caffeine" and I'm happy it didn't actually end that way. But five days after your binge and you still feel messed up (especially THAT messed up) makes me think you might actually be going through withdrawal. Surprised it could happen after just three days.

FYI on that third day of use though, I can't speak for whether that brand would work well for you or not, but pregabalin and gabapentin tend to be useless or at least very near to it after the second day of recreational use. It's a tolerance thing.
 
Is there any method to potentiate pregabalin? Any supplements or how to consume it?
I have been using pregabalin recreational since 2010, have been dependent from it severeal times and thats why that substance is very familiar to me. But, even i don't take pregabalin very often these days, maybe once a month I have kinda permatolerance to it. I def can feel good with 300mg but to get desired effects I need to take 750 to 1050mg total in 6 to 8 hour span, i know it is pretty big dosage, not fatal though. If i take Gabapentin, i need to take 3200mg in 10 hour span.. . And here where I live, pregabalin is expensive.
So, do you guys know how to make it feel stronger with smaller dosage?
